"The model/lady is Amanda Rootsey," says Peppermint editor Kelley Sheenan of her autumn issue cover girl. "Her hair/bird is drawn by Kelly Thompson. Amanda had cancer at the time and no hair but still wanted to go ahead, so we decided on a mixed media image to make it happen for her. Amanda also did a lot with the Queensland floods, donating time and food to help feed many hundreds of people, which was nice seeing as we had the Baked Relief/floods feature. The result is gorgeous (so we think anyway!)."
